Appreciate the sophistication and style of this enticing lodge in Dorset. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom retreat at Farnham, 8 miles from Blandford Forum, offers a bright, airy ambience thanks to its high ceilings and cool decor.

Wander inside to discover single-storey accommodation that has been thoughtfully finished with your stay in mind. Gather in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to map out the activities of the coming days or to simply unwind on the sofas and catch up on each other’s news. Light the wood burner to bring a toasty glow to the space or pull the bi-folding doors open, depending on the temperature of the day. Help yourself to a book from the shelf or pick up the remote control to the Smart TV before chatting with the chef of the party about the preparations for the next meal. The chic kitchen has been fitted out for self-catering and there is a table where you can linger over your holiday dishes long into each evening. The bedrooms at this Dorset hideaway have also been designed to ensure your utmost comfort. Here, you have two doubles, each with ample storage and French doors to the courtyard garden. One of the bedrooms has an en-suite shower room, while guests in the other can enjoy sole use of the family bathroom. Cook on the BBQ in the enclosed garden while pets and children play freely. There is dedicated parking for one car, with additional on-street space.
